Choose the answer. Determine which relation is a function. A. {(–3, 2), (–2, 3), (–1, 2), (0, 4), (1, 1)} B. {(–3, 2), (–2, 3), (–1, 1), (0, 4), (0, 1)} C. {(–3, 3), (–2, 3), (–1, 1), (0, 4), (0, 1)} D. {(–3, 2), (–1, 3), (–1, 2), (0, 4), (1, 1)}
please help I will give medal and fans:)
It is a function if, every element in your domain maps to exactly one element in your range.
As you can see in B for example, The X value of zero, maps to two different Y values, 4 and 1 so this set is not a function.
so do u mean b is the answer?
no B is one of the NOT answers
For a set of points, in order to tell if it is a function, check to see if any of the x values in (x,y) corresponds to more than one Y value. In the case of B, you have two points (0,4) and (0,1) which has a x value of zero mapping to two different y values of 4 and 1. If this is the case, it is NOT a function. Each X value has to only have one and only one Y value.
D
I'll give you one more hint. It is not D) because... (-1,3) and (-1,2) are two points with a single x value corresponding to more than one y value.
So by that logic.. It is either A or C
C
What made you say that?
A is the right:)
